it protection

This white paper reviews common HPC-environment challenges and outlines solutions that can help IT professionals deliver best-in-class HPC cloud solutions—without undue stress and organizational chaos.
The paper:
• Identifies current issues—including data management, data center limitations, user expectations, and technology shifts- that stress IT teams and existing infrastructure across industries and HPC applications
• Describes the potential cost savings, operational scale, and new functionality that cloud solutions can bring to big compute
• Characterizes technical and other barriers to an all cloud infrastructure and describes how IT teams can leverage a hybrid cloud for compute power, maximum flexibility, and protection against locked-in scenarios

Developing an optimal arc flash protection strategy
for a given facility can be difficult due to the number of solutions
and system variables involved. Effective arc flash hazard reduction
is best achieved by establishing an overall system protection
strategy that accounts for safety and operational requirements as
well as system reliability and availability. An overview of available
solution categories and application guidance based on experience
in a wide variety of facility types is presented in order to assist
engineers trying to implement “safety by design” principles
to help deal with arc flash hazards. The approach provided addresses
the complexities of the trade-offs between competing priorities
and provides tools that help users develop effective protection
strategies for the unique circumstances in a given facility.

In the early years of software development, you would often design it, build it, and
only then think about how to secure it.
This was arguably fine in the days of monolithic applications and closed networks,
when good perimeter-based protection and effective identity and access management
would get you a long way towards minimising the risk. In today’s highly connected,
API-driven application environments, however, any given software component or
service can be invoked and potentially abused in so many different ways. Add to this
the increasing pace of change through iterative ‘DevOps-style’ delivery and ever-faster
release cycles, and many understandably assert that security management and
assurance nowadays needs to be an ongoing and embedded part of the development
and delivery process.

Traditional networking and security infrastructures often buckle under the pressure.
In this ebook, Guide to Cloud Connectivity and Security in Distributed Networks, we’ll share a better approach. Integrating connectivity and security, and moving them to the cloud, can help you achieve higher productivity, reduce cost, and ease compliance.
Specific topics include:
Ways to augment or replace expensive MPLS for more powerful connectivity
Types of security every internet-connected site needs for holistic protection
Advantages of an integrated solution over a patchwork of point products
Read our ebook for more on how to connect and protect across your distributed networks.

All Clouds are not Equal
Today’s organizations turn to the cloud for all types of productivity-gaining tools – including security.
Features such as security for mobile users and data loss protection are key, but it’s also important to separate fact from fiction when looking at the infrastructure of the provider.
This ebook helps you consider the importance of:
Data center locations
Security controls, data privacy, availability, reliability, and performance
What your organization or agency actually needs
Download the ebook to discover five common misconceptions about cloud-based security infrastructure, and what you should really be looking for in a cloud-based security solution.

Security spending is expected to reach $120 billion by 2021, yet the amount of data loss events seems to be increasing. Legacy DLP solutions, which rely on traditional threat blocking policies, have been unable to evolve to address these threats. Organizations need to fundamentally rethink how they address cybersecurity for today’s modern threats. Watch this webcast to understand how taking a Risk-Adaptive approach enables security to fluctuate based on the threat environment. See how Dynamic Data Protection, an industry-first solution, uses human-centric behavior analytics to continuously determine the risk cyber identities pose, based on their actions.

Things are not as they used to be in the enterprise. Today’s employees are mobile, they’re storing and accessing data in cloud apps, and are in disparate networks. While the present-day digital world has changed, the objective of data protection has not: you must still ensure the security of your critical data and intellectual property. However, the threat-centric security approach, with its static policies forces decisions about cyber activity with no insight into the broader context. The result is a disproportionate number of flagged activities, overwhelming security teams who have no way to understand the ones most worthy of investigation. Read Rethinking Data Security with a Risk-Adaptive Approach to learn how a human-centric, risk-adaptive approach can help your organization be more proactive in order to:
• Automate policy enforcement to deter data loss events
• Reduce the number of security alerts
• Cut down on incident investigation time

The constant presence of internal and external threats, along with increased worldwide regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), have continued to drive the adoption of data loss prevention (DLP) solutions. In the “Data Loss Prevention – Market Quadrant 2018” report, The Radicati Group estimates the DLP market will double from $1.1 billion in 2018 to $2.2 billion by 2022. Once again, Forcepoint has been named a Top Player in this year’s report, citing strengths such as integration with Forcepoint CASB to extend DLP policies into cloud applications and more.

The Business Case for Data Protection, conducted by Ponemon Institute and sponsored by Ounce Labs, is the first study to determine what senior executives think about the value proposition of corporate data protection efforts within their organizations. In times of shrinking budgets, it is important for those individuals charged with managing a data protection program to understand how key decision makers in organizations perceive the importance of safeguarding sensitive and confidential information.
